 * On a lark, I tried something and it worked… It’s always the way, as soon as you
   ask for help you figure it out. Anyway, here’s my solution:
 * The fact that NOTHING that worked for anyone else was working for me said it 
   might be something with my host. We had a problem with another client site recently
   running Drupal on 1&1 and we finally traced it to the fact that 1&1 defaults 
   to using PHP4, unless you specifically tell it to use PHP5. I know, right?
 * I dropped a line in the .htaccess file “AddType x-mapp-php5 .php” and voila! 
   Works a treat.
 * I was even able to pull all the security bypasses that people had been suggesting
   from my .htaccess because some had questioned the security.
 * So, if like me, you’re still kerfuffled, try checking the version of PHP you’re
   using. (if you don’t know, you can normally find out easily by slipping a phpinfo();
   call into a blank page.
 * Cheers!
